I have now committed the changes to the installer. A demo installer can be 
found at

I'm skeptical about the lack of proper deinstallation: per convention, 
uninstallation of software ought to be "clean" on windows, i.e. return the 
system to the state it had before the installation.

Uninstallation currently isn't clean when pip installation is selected. I know 
this is what the PEP says, but I'm still unhappy, and I know that users will 
dislike it. So as a compromise, I made the installation of pip non-default, 
meaning that users have to opt into installing something that doesn't properly 
uninstall.
